“In our effort to share the best of American independent film with audiences outside the U.S., Hong Kong seemed an excellent location with a rich cinematic history,” said John Cooper, Director of the Sundance Film Festival. “In partnership with The Metroplex, we look forward to presenting a program of diverse and high quality American independent films.”

The Sundance Film Festival – Hong Kong Selects program will be announced in mid-August followed by the commencement of ticket sales near the end of the month. It is jointly presented by Sundance Institute and The Metroplex, and is supported by the U.S. Consulate General in Hong Kong and Macau. Screenings will span across two weekends.
